Varanasi: Shyam Rangeela, the comedian who announced his candidacy for the Varanasi Lok Sabha seat, has had his nomination rejected. Sources informed on Wednesday that the rejection was due to Rangeela's failure to submit the required affidavit.

Rangeela had filed his nomination just a day before the rejection. Following his submission, he tweeted: "After completing all the documentation, and procedures and overcoming other hurdles, we are now on the verge of becoming an option for the people of Varanasi. Just wait for two-three more days, let the symbol arrive, we will fight with full strength, with your support."

Earlier, Rangeela claimed he faced significant obstacles while attempting to file his nomination papers. Since May 10, he had been trying to submit his paperwork but alleged he was barred from entering the district magistrate’s office on the same day Prime Minister Narendra Modi filed his nomination. Rangeela also mentioned that he did not bring a team from his hometown of Sriganganagar to contest the elections in Varanasi.

Rangeela reported receiving numerous phone calls from Varanasi residents who expressed their willingness to support his campaign. He emphasized his commitment to contesting against Prime Minister Modi, stating, "Winning or losing is a different matter, but I will contest the elections against the Prime Minister at any cost. I am not contesting elections to become famous, I am already very famous among the public."

Surendra Rajput of the Congress party supported Rangeela's claims, alleging that the administration was not providing Rangeela with the necessary nomination papers. "Everyone is free to file a nomination, including PM Modi. However, other people are not allowed to file their nominations from the constituency. A YouTuber named Rangeela, who wished to file a nomination from Varanasi, isn’t getting nomination papers from the administration," Rajput stated.

In the Varanasi constituency, Prime Minister Narendra Modi faces opposition from Congress candidate Ajai Rai and Bahujan Samajwadi Party’s Athar Ali Lari.

Jaipur, Dec 24: Efforts to rescue a three-year-old girl who fell into a 150 feet deep borewell in Kotputli-Behror district of Rajasthan continued on Tuesday.

The girl, Chetna, fell into the borewell while playing in the agriculture farm of her father on Monday.

SHO Sarund Mohammad Imran said teams of NDRF and SDRF are trying to rescue the girl safely.
